Trumpeter 7205 1/72 Panzerjager Tiger (PR) SdKfz 184 Ferdinand Tank

Description: Panzerjager Tiger (PR) SdKfz 184 Ferdinand Tank The Elefant (Sd.Kfz. 184) was an anti-tank vehicle sometimes called the Ferdinand, after its designer Mr. Ferdinand Porsche. Ninety Elefanten were manufactured in just a few months during mid-1943. It was first deployed during the Battle of Kursk and, though it was credited with destroying 320 Russian tanks, performed very poorly in other respects: many units broke down and they proved dangerously vulnerable to infantry, lacking a machine gun. They went on to serve in Italy in 1944 and the final units were involved in the Battle of Berlin. Features: 1/72 scale plastic assembly kit. Skill Level 4.
